“...claws at the imagination for days afterwards”
- Variety

6 performances only.

What are we if we are not our stories?

Irishman Dinny and his two adult sons have been acting out the same farcical play for 20 years within the confines of their squalid South London apartment. But as their play within a play begins to unravel, the lies, illusions and destructive secrets that have kept the family together come into horrifying focus.

From acclaimed Irish playwright Enda Walsh comes a ferociously entertaining play about stories we tell ourselves in order to cope. A family tragedy disguised as traditional high farce romp, The Walworth Farce has wowed audiences everywhere and comes to Toronto for six performances only.

Canadian premiere!
